rynlingThere's a Tumblr I was following about half a year ago...
http://social-justice-wario.tumblr.com/
...which I unsubscribed from because the author stopped posting awesome ironic SJW memes and started getting into fights with anonymous trolls. As the trolls became more aggressive, the author began to voice more radical opinions, a process that was upsetting to watch as it unfolded.
Anyway, because I wanted to use one of the author's images to respond to a ridiculous comment I encountered elsewhere, I visited the site this afternoon only to find that it's currently on hiatus.
Apparently, the blog and its followers outed a suspected rapist who's a bit of a BNF on various Nintendo-related forums, at which point the shit really hit the fan(dom).
I didn't agree with everything the author posted, but I can't even begin to comprehend the online harassment they had to deal with. People on the internet can be unbelievably cuckoo bananas sometimes.
